Oracle^® ILOM User's Guide for System Monitoring and Diagnostics Firmware Release 3.2.x

Clear Faults for Undetected Replaced or Repaired Hardware Components

Before You Begin

• Review fmadm Command Usage and Syntax.

• If a fault event is cleared before the required corrective service action for the faulty component is completed, the Oracle ILOM Fault Manager diagnoses the fault and displays the fault event in the Oracle ILOM Open Problems table and in the Oracle ILOM Fault Management log files again.

To clear faults for undetected hardware repairs or replacements from the Oracle ILOM Fault Management Shell, do the following:

1. From the Oracle ILOM CLI, launch a Fault Management Shell, as described in Launch a Fault Management Shell Session (CLI).

   The faultmgmtsp> or faultmgmtcmm> prompt appears.

2. Identify and display information about active suspect components.

   See View Information About Active Faulty Components (fmadm faulty) for more details.

3. Type one of the following fmadm commands to manually clear a fault:

   • fmadm replaced [fru|cru] – A suspect component has been replaced or removed.

   • fmadm repaired [fru|cru] – A suspect component has been physically repaired to resolve the reported problem. For example, a component has been reseated or a bent pin has been fixed.

   • fmadm acquit [fru|cru] [uuid] – A suspect component or uuid resource is not the cause of the problem.

     Where [fru|cru] [uuid] appears, type the system path to the suspect chassis FRU or CRU, or type the associated universal unique identifier (uuid) for the resource reported in the problem.

   ---

   Note - A replacement takes precedence over a repair, and both replacement and repair take precedence over acquittal. Thus, you can acquit a component and subsequently repair it, but you cannot acquit a component that has already been repaired.

   ---

   For syntax descriptions and examples, see fmadm Command Usage and Syntax.

4. To display the exit code for the last executed fault management command, type:

   echo $?

   One of the following echo codes appears:

   Code Description 0 Successful completion. 1 An error occurred. Errors can include a failure to communicate with Oracle ILOM and insufficient privileges to perform the requested operation.
